What kind of swap options are there for this model?

Felix Wankel 10-11-2002 12:36 AM

Engine, suspension, body, interior.... What do you want to swap???

Mr. Ashe 10-11-2002 12:38 AM

That was terribly vauge, sorry..



Meant to say engine.

Felix Wankel 10-11-2002 01:19 AM

Do you want to stay rotary? Turbo? Non turbo? V8?



What do you plan on doing with it?

How 'bout a Porsche flat six?

Mr. Ashe 10-11-2002 04:01 PM

So, I imagine the 12a would be the most sensible option?



I'd imagine he'd want to keep it rotary..



How about a 13b?



(this is a question for someone else..but I do plan on purchasing a 3rd gen RX-7)

DJ Rotor 10-11-2002 04:37 PM

12a wouldn't be a swap at all, that's what it has now.



13b Turbo is fairly popular and will give you more power than you'd ever need.



I can post a couple links for you if you want.

Go for it, can never have too much information.



Hell, I might even buy a 1g just to get accustomed to rotary.



btw, isnt the whole point behind a swap to get more power? How much would a 13b yeild?
